H1 extension

My friend's H1 is into the 7 year i.e he is on his first extension based on a pending GC application. This extension is only valid till Oct 2006. He has currently got a job offer from another employer and intends doing an H1 transfer. My understanding is that he would be OK till October if the transfer happens immediately. But my question is what about after that. Does he have to go back to home country for a year before he comes back. Can he get another extension on H1 through new employer given that the GC was filed by the employer he is leaving and who may revoke the GC appication.

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Yeppo

You can get 8th year extension with H1B transfer from Company A based on pending labor from company B. It is not required that you have pending labor with Company A to get extension with company A.
 
Hi Ginnu,

But Can he get further H1 extensions(say 9th) through Company A. The reason for asking this question is, the pending labour is with Company B. On what basis he will get further extensions through Company A.
